Hey look, it's Freiza!
The did the same thing for tupac and michael jackson, its not that weird. You guys need to switch to decaff I think. I like Dio as much as anyone but I don't think a hologram of him rocking hurts his memory in any way.
Ronnie James Dio is back!!

Agree.
I too think its freakish and wrong. Can you imagine talking to a friend.
"Hey, did you see Dio in his day ?"
"....No ...but I did get to a gig where I saw his hologram..."
wtf...Go out buy all the Dio/Sabbath/Rainbow/Elf albums etc
Give the man some respect which he deserves
What next comeback gigs by Hendrix or Elvis ?? Come on give us a break...

yea its lame, they are out to make money obviously. I doubt the real Dio would have signed off on it haha but oh well. A lot of what his estate has and what his offspring make goes to his cancer charity so a little publicity, even if in morbid taste, could actually help some people, in theory anyway. I just said oh thats weird when I saw it, I don't think it's a travesty or anything, just really lame. It's wild that in movies like star wars they use holograms to deliver urgent war news. In our reality we mock dead celebrities with it. Smh at Idiocracy.

It would be one thing if he was alive, but the fact that he is dead brings a whole new creepy spookiness to it. I don't like it at all.
This is how it looked.

After seeing it I think it's even more weird.

The hologram itself does not bother me. I mean, it's similar to watching an old Dio live performance on a DVD or YouTube I suppose. However, I'm bothered by people who uses Dio's name, music etc. to bring attention to themselves by supposedly honouring Dio’s name. Nobody needs all that crap to keep Dio's name alive. We fans, the real fans, will not forget him, just as the real fans never needed a hologram or tons of spin-off bands to remember Bon Scott, Jimi, Janis, Ronnie Van Zant etc.
